Ficus elastica 'Robusta' (27cm Pot)
Product Code: 295625
£60.99
- Owning a Rubber Plant is all about the retro-chic of broad, shiny leaves. Ficus elastica Robusta is a modern variety that is very close to the original species in appearance, but with leaves that are wider and more glossy
- Sold in a 27cm nursery pot
- Light: Ficus elastica Robusta prefers bright, indirect light but does cope quite well in lower light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight as this will scorch the plant
- Watering: Water when the soil starts to become slightly dry at the top. Keep the soil lightly moist at all times, but do not overwater as this will cause leaf drop
- Temperature: This Ficus does fine in normal household temperatures but will thrive in a slightly warmer environment: between 16-24°C. Avoid cold draughts
- Humidity: This Rubber Plant has no specific humidity requirements, although for an added boost, consider giving your Ficus an occasional misting or relocating to a steamier room like the bathroom or kitchen
